Since the junta held onto power from President Mohamed Bazoum July 26, 2023, ECOWAS had forced sanctions on Niger in light of the upset and has not precluded utilizing force against the military officials.
The West African coalition has supported the organization of a "reserve power to reestablish sacred request" in Niger as quickly as time permits yet stays focused on tracking down a political answer for the emergency.

He said discretion will not neglect to reestablish the fairly chosen legislature of ousted President Mohamed Bazoum.

The upset has elevated global concerns over the Sahel, which countenances developing jihadist uprisings connected to Al-Qaeda and the Islamic State bunch.
